Re: Package Size Discrepency

Why is gcc42 from:
ftp://ftp3.ca.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/Latest/gcc42.tbz
~66.6Mbs and has libobjc.so.2 but gcc42 from:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/Latest/gcc42.tbz
~18.9 and doesn't have this library?

Thanks,
jlc

Probably because one was built and uploaded before the gcc maintainer
made some changes, like removing (and afterwards, re-adding) the objc
frontend and removing the java frontend.  See revisions 1.351-2 of:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/lang/gcc42/Makefile

But the usual warnings regarding binaries built by someone else and
fetched from a remote location apply.
